2013 dispute
From March 2013 to May 21 2013, domain name registrars such as GoDaddy would not accept new registrations for .vg, .tc and .gd domain names.Domains - GoDaddy Help US About .vg Domains https://support.godaddy.com/help/article/5858/about-vg-domain-names 2020-01-27January 2020
The domain freeze arose because of legal disputes over the appropriate registrar for those top-level domains. Originally, IANA accredited AdamsNames Ltd. to own and control those top-level domains,GmbH Key-Systems Press Statement: KSregistry / Adamsnames Key-Systems 2013-03-11 https://www.key-systems.net/english/press/press-releases/press-statement-ksregistry-adamsnames.html 2020-01-27 2014-02-21 https://web.archive.org/web/20140221135349/http://www.key-systems.net/english/press/press-releases/press-statement-ksregistry-adamsnames.html dead but in 2013 a former AdamsNames partner created a new company, Meridian Ltd., which claimed to be the new accredited registry. In response, the National Telecommunications Regulatory Commission (NTRC) made the decision to move the .gd zone under the management of KSRegistry, running as nicGD, as of 1 May 2013. This was to ensure the integrity of the zone and to allow it remain in control and under the responsibility of the NTRC.GmbH Key-Systems KSregistry becomes registry provider for .GD Key-Systems 2013-05-07 https://www.key-systems.net/en/news/ksregistry-becomes-registry-provider-for-gd 2020-01-27 2020-01-27 https://web.archive.org/web/20200127171015/https://www.key-systems.net/en/news/ksregistry-becomes-registry-provider-for-gd dead National Telecommunications Regulatory Commission (NTRC) :: Grenada archive.ph 2013-07-02 http://ntrc.gd/GD%20Domain%20Name.html https://archive.today/20130702023137/http://ntrc.gd/GD%20Domain%20Name.html dead 2013-07-02 2020-01-27 KSRegistry, as a result of acquiring the zone, had to resolve any discrepancies that may have occurred during the dispute and chose to freeze the zone from changes until May 21, 2013.
